    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I am actually quite concerned about a friend on mine who still hasnt had a LBM, keeps running up the cards and sticking it on the mortgage, seethat as being financially savvy as they are paying it off over a longer terms so keeping the payments low..............................:eek:

    Nothing I can do really but hope that the LBM kicks in soon:o

    She won't be able to remortgage again though will she:o

    And upset our bookie too....although reading some of his other posts yesterday I would say we had someone with a small willy who doesn't get treated like a prince and was having a slow day at work.

    I'm ok. I read back his posts today and they still made me hurt to be honest, :o but he is just some idiot who maybe wanted to be the big 'I am' poking fun at those he thought were beneath him (he works in the debt industry in some way and showed his true colours with his comment about us all being in debt talking about carp men without realising some of us aren't in debt) :rolleyes: His phone number is on another of his posts, if he had continued, I might have pointed everyone in its general direction to make their feelings known verbally ;)

    Had other things to deal with last night to be honest, but won't go into them in case he re-appears :rolleyes:
